Hello all,
just wanted to let you know that Malaysia in Southeast Asia is a country that makes it relatively easy for vegetarians and vegans to lead a happy and healthy life.
Tropical climate (average temperature of 27 degrees Centigrade with no less than 23 Degrees Centigrade in Winter and not much more than 34 Degrees Centigrade in Summer), accounts for an abundance of fruits that you can not find in other countries, and a mix of the culinary traditions from Malaysia, China and India makes it possible to find a variety of food.
Also, there are many vegetarians (especially Chinese and Indian people), so restaurants normally are quite flexible to provide vegetarian food, even if it is not their specialty, and it is even possible to explain to them what vegans can eat and expect to get nice vegan food. www.happycow.net has a lot of vegetarian and some vegan restaurants, and there are some forums on Facebook that can help further.

As I have been living here for about a year and a half so far, if you want to find out about anything, simply ask
Best regards,
Andy
